Undrained shear strength determination and correlations on Søvind Marl [PDF]
, 2016 Undrained shear strength on Søvind Marl is found through undrained, volume constant, triaxial testing and is compared to field vane shear strength. Søvind Marl is extremely plastic and highly fissured Eocene clay found throughout Denmark.

A Review of Undrained Strength in Direct Simple Shear
Soils and Foundations, 1985 ABSTRACT Normalized undrained shear strengths from direct simple shear (DSS) tests conducted on 50 different clays are compared with strengths determined from triaxial shear tests. The DSS strength is typically observed to be an intermediate strength between triaxial compression and extension.

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT During the last glacial period, the Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) was the largest terrestrial ice sheet on Earth. Its evolution since the Last Glacial Maximum profoundly influenced Earth's geodynamics and surface processes. Investigating the past dynamics of the LIS provides critical insights into how contemporary ice sheets may respond to ...

Undrained Cyclic Shear Strength of a Dense Niigata Sand
Soils and Foundations, 1984 ABSTRACT A large continuous sample of a saturated sand to a depth of about 10 m was successfully obtained in Niigata, Japan, by means of an in situ freezing method, and so-called undisturbed samples of the sand were obtained by a conventional triple-tube sampler.

Unsaturated shear strength behaviour under unconsolidated undrained tests [PDF]
, 2013 Residual soils cover more than three-quarts of the land area of Peninsular Malaysia. Many steep slopes in these residual soils often have a deep ground water table. Above those ground water tables, the soils are in unsaturated conditions.

, 2021 Xanthan gum (XG) biopolymer-based soil treatment is an effective soil improvement method. In this study, we explored the effect of XG on the undrained shear strength of clays (kaolinite and montmorillonite) in chemically distinct pore fluids.

Vadose Zone Journal, 2018 In geotechnical engineering practice, many projects such as stability analysis of slopes or trenches and pavement design involve soils in vadose zones at shallow depths, where soils are under unsaturated conditions. For these types of projects, undrained

Effects of Strain Rates on the Undrained Shear Strength of Kaolin
Geotechnical Testing Journal, 2017 Abstract In recent times, interest in dynamically installed foundation systems for deep-sea construction has increased; however, these foundation systems are still under development and need quantification of various soil parameters with different perspectives.

Modeling Biocemented Sands: Hypoplastic Model for MICP‐Based Ground Improvement
International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Bio‐cementation offers a sustainable and low‐carbon alternative to conventional ground improvement methods, aligning with the growing demand for green geotechnical solutions. To enable reliable numerical simulation of bio‐cemented soil behavior in engineering applications, advanced constitutive models are required to account for the effects of

Normalized Undrained Shear Strength of Clay Shales
, 2008 This paper examines the possibility of normalizing the undrained shear strength behavior of clay shales. Shales are formed in sedimentary basins by diagenetic processes, which turn young clay sediments into compacted and lithified shales.
